Why is the lgbtq community so hypocritical
Our Voice: Hypocritical morality in anti-LGBTQ rhetoric
Most agree with the old saying “practice what you preach.” However, it seems that those who preach loudest about morality are breaking their own morals.
Over the past few weeks, many states across the country contain been pushing anti-drag legislation. In Tennessee, a bill successfully passed a bill that restricts “adult cabaret performances” in public or in front of children. Many Tennessee legislators dread that drag performances are inappropriate and dangerous for children.
Since then, it has come out that two politicians who supported anti-drag legislation have participated in drag-like performances in their youth. In Tennessee, Gov. Bill Lee, who signed the law to disallow drag in public, is dressed in drag in a high school yearbook photo, according to the Associated Press.
Similarly, Texas Rep. Nate Schatzline wrote an anti-drag bill to be implemented in Texas. According to ABC, videos of Schatzline resurfaced of wearing a dress in public.
In their responses to hypocrisy accusations, Lee and Schatzline seem to feel as though it is silly to compare their conduct to self-identified drag performers.
“What a ridiculous quest
With the War on Christmas™ behind them and the president’s impending war with Iran conveniently ignored, a large group of evangelical conservatives gathered on the first Friday of the year of our lord twenty twenty to vouch for the re-election bid of one Donald J. Trump. Calling themselves “Evangelicals For Trump,” this coalition of rabidly anti-LGBTQ voices made the case for why the thrice married, porn star-paying-off, stone-casting, kid-caging, family-separating, false-witness-bearer who became president is not only a fine leader who is deserving of office, but is also a very godly man who is fulfilling a moral duty every period he steps in the Oval.
The lineup was a veritable who’s who of anti-LGBTQ activists. There was Tony Perkins, who has turned slurring the LGBTQ community into a crude performance art. You also had James Dobson, the longtime movement head who compares the “immoral behavior” of LGBTQ people to pedophiles and alcoholics. Michelle “homosexuality is part of Satan, I think” Bachmann was also on hand, as was Robert “gays are filthy” Jeffress. Jim Garlow, who believes having gay parents
June is Pride Month, the annual use in rainbow-washing, and if you monitor very carefully you may even perceive gay rights mentioned. You might be familiar with Identity festival Month from past years. On 31 May, the bank is offering you a fixed rate with a four per cent APRC; on 1 June, it wants you to know that, on the off chance you’re genderqueer, your mortgage-lender thinks that’s valid.
The most obvious way for a organization to signal its commitment to inclusivity is to emblazon its corporate branding with the Parade flag, but this is increasingly fraught with difficulty. Because, you see, the Pride flag is no longer inclusive. It’s a lgbtq+ symbol, after all, and gay men and lesbians rank just below pale people and non-graduates in The Current Ideology’s hierarchy of villainy.
Some brands get around this by using the Progress Pride flag instead and, speaking of banks, HSBC has gone down this route. Alas, progress is a fast-moving thing and while the Progress flag boasts additional stripes in azure, pink and colorless (trans pride) and brown and shadowy (‘people of colour’), it isn’t as progressive as the Intersex-Inclusive Progress Celebration flag, which
The Betrayal and Hypocrisy of Catholic “LGBT Pride”
Welcome to the Counsel of Trent podcast, a production of Catholic Answers.
Hey, everyone. Welcome to the Counsel of Trent podcast. I’m your host, Catholic Answers’ apologist, Trent Horn, and we’re about a week into Pride Month, the month that never seems enjoy it’s going to conclude, but in today’s episode, I want to chat about Catholics who are proud to celebrate LGBT, but also claim they don’t dissent from any of the church’s teachings on sexuality. This, of course, includes Father James Martin, but it also includes all those Catholic social media accounts you see that put the Pride flag up for June, or sometimes all year long, but speak they’re also completely loyal to the church’s teachings, but in using this imagery and these symbols, they’re actually betraying the Catholic faith. Before I explain why that’s the case, though, I crave to give the huge shout-out to our supporters at trenthornpodcast.com.

The massive hypocrisy of the West’s World Cup ‘concerns’
United States Secretary of Mention Antony Blinken recently came out against a disallow on rainbow armbands at the World Cup tournament in Qatar, which various European team captains had intended to sport in support of LGBTQ rights and against discrimination. Blinken flagged the ban as “concerning” and a restriction on “freedom of expression”.
The secretary’s scolding came on the heels of another rather “concerning” development on the world stage: a mass shooting at a gay nightclub in the US state of Colorado that killed five people and wounded 18 others. This, in a land that fancies itself the global role model in terms of respect for freedom of expression, human rights, and all that good stuff – and yet where it is becoming increasingly difficult for people to exercise their right to not be massacred at nightclubs, elementary schools, places of worship, shopping malls, and so on.
In 2016, the US witnessed its worst mass shooting in history when 50 people were killed in an attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida.
This year, an independent UN human rights expert found that LGBTQ rights in the US are “under a concerted
